* DubNameChange: Played with, as Hyades Daybreak ''and'' Dawn Of Hyades both make sense and tie in with Walpurgisnacht herself. In Japanese, Walpurgisnacht is known as Walpurgis No Yoru (ワルプルギスの夜) and can be literally translated into 'Night of Walpurgis'. Similarly, this Witch is labelled Hyades No Yoake (ヒュアデスの暁) or going by the Kanji. This would translate literally to 'Dawn of Hyades', with the official English localization using Hyades Daybreak to retain the Witch + Time Of Day theme.

* BodyHorror: [[spoiler: How he dies. He tries to purify Kazumi's Soul Gem, but isn't able to; instead he starts crumbling into pieces, and simply says "Ciao" to Kazumi before he dissolves completely.]]
* DarkIsNotEvil: Not only is he an Incubator [[spoiler: (after a fashion)]], but his color scheme is far darker and his design a little more monstrous than Kyubey's. Unlike Kyubey, though, Jubey seems to genuinely care for his charges and never shows any real signs of Kyubey's deviousness.
* EmbarrassingNickname: Satomi calls him "Bey-chan", and Niko calls him, "Beyyan." He doesn't like it.
* ExpressiveHair / ExpressiveEars: It's...not quite clear ''what'' they are, but in Chapter 8 he uses one of them to make a thinking pose, complete with thumb and forefinger cupped under his chin.
